I don't know what to tell you,then, Steve. I just fed ffmpegX a VOB
file, chose Movie audio to MP3, and clicked Encode. A while later, the
desired MP3 file came out the other end.

Grasping at straws here, but is the VOB file on your hard disk in a
directory to which you have read permission? Is the "Save as..."
directory writeable by you? Click the little "i" button in the ffmpegX
progress window and see what it says in the window that appears -- that
might give you a clue as to where the problem lies.
